For me bitcoin volatality is the best feature of bitcoin. Because we can do a lot of activities in volatile price, trading and investing are the most common activities that brought by price volatality. I think bitcoin will not become popular if its price was stable. No one will attempt to invest in something that has stable price, because profit is what we aiming for in every investment that we have. That's my thought.

In my own opinion, bitcoin volatility is not a bad thing because it is a normal. Otherwise bitcoin volatility is one of the attribute that bitcoin have. I think that volatility is not an barrier to become rich in contrast it is a way to become rich if you know how to go with the flow of bitcoin price. In addition you can make more profit if you are a strategic one that knows the circulation of bitcoin. Smiley

 Bitcoin did not do too bad last year compared to fiat currencies. Until the holding of Bitcoin becomes widely distributed and its liquidity improves substantially, we will see substantial volatility in Bitcoin price.

It will depend on how will you look at it so basically, it can be a positive thing, negative or both. As an example, we can see that the market value at this moment of Bitcoin is falling, some be worried and some will be more interested since the price of Bitcoin is low and investing into it will yield to huge profit in the future.

I think bitcoin's volatility is a good and a bad thing, but nonetheless it's a normal healthy aspect of bitcoin. With volatility
it will appear or rather behave unpredictably, which to some is a good thing because it gives bitcoin it's unique appeal.
It offers to everyone the chance to attain and purchase a remarkable investment at a good price whenever prices goes down.
The fine thing about it though is that being highly volatile also gives it the limitless ability to increase in value. Although highly
unpredictable and risky at the same time, it's also very profitable and full of potential.

I don't think so, If indeed volatility is a bad thing for bitcoin, should the use of bitcoin will not spread so fast as it is now. As it is known, bitcoin volatility has been high since the first bitcoin appeared, but the use of bitcoin has increased over time. It's true volatility affects (PRICE / VALUE) but I think it only applies to a Daytrader or a short-term investment because they are looking for loopholes from the fluctuations that occur to gain profit.

Well it's cryptos nature to be volatile and same with stocks and forex. That's what makes money for traders be it day traders or long term traders. If you know how to play around volatility then you can take advantage of it and make more money. So it's normal and not a bad thing

Steam dropped bitcoin support citing "high volatility" as a motive.

When amazon stock jumped from $18 to $1,200 over a period of years, was this high volatility a bad thing?

If bitcoin's value increases from $6,000 to $16,000 over a period of months, and HODL'ers benefit, this high volatility is bad?

Where does the idea of high volatility being an unnecessary evil come from?

Are there good arguments or evidence which support the concept of high volatility being a negative circumstance?

In a sense, volatility simply means the price of something moves a lot, its not that bad if the vast majority of motion is in an upward direction?

 Huh Huh Huh
It never been happened to so called bad. It is worth it the way we earned money, the way it helps people who wants jobs, and those rich people are the product of bitcoin. Other than thay I can say that it is never been bad about volatility,it is normal thing to happen in cryptocurrency world so dont panic and think it is bad.

Volatility is sought after by traders. They all love volatility cos thats how they make money.
Without volatility, profits cant be generated.

But volatility makes it difficult for bitcoin to be used as a medium of exchange. So if we want to make BTC as a currency, I think BTC needs to reach its true valuation first then it can be used as a currency, when it is more stable.

But if BTC is considered as an asset, volatility can be considered as a good thing so long the long term trend is up.

FX markets which have been known to be volatile, are also well loved by traders. We dun see people lamenting about fx being volatile do we?

For day traders and short-term investors, volatility makes it possible to make a profit. Correctly predicting short-term trends in bitcoin, traders can make a significant profit; much more than investors who have a buy and hold strategy.

and in my opinion, trading crypto is safer than trading stocks and forex although, from all of that, the price is volatile too and in trading crypto, we can expecting that the price will be back increase and it is different than trading stocks and forex. besides that, in trading crypto, we don't have to use some big amount to start and we can reach an unlimited profit in trading crypto,

Maybe yes because Volatility of bitcoin is very risky for investor and traders indeed it's always happen on cryptocurrency. If people know how bad things of investing on cryptocurrency maybe they think it's normal but for new people they thing is bad.

I think it depends on the person's point of view ,
Some might think it is a bad thing because they would lose some money,
But others might think it is a good thing because they could earn some while doing a buy and sell.

I think you are looking at the negative things of the dump from high to low big difference but you are not looking towards the opportunity that is involved with the volatility for the bitcoin .
When bitcoin get up to high then that was the attractive price to see that what is bitcoin and also that was the record touch high all time price so that was better time to sell .
But after dump to 7500$ or less was better time to buy also but everyone was feeling panic and dump only and no one was looking toward the opportunity that was with the dump .
So don't think that dump is a type of negative factor with the bitcoin but it is better way to make earnings and trading to make sudden and fast profit .

In my opinion, it is good for all the people here in the bitcoin because they can all get benefits from bitcoin because the volatility can give them easy profits per day which is a very great thing to expect for an investor and also a trader because in the stock market, you cannot earn what you are earning here in bitcoin everyday so it is a really good advantage to have a volatile market like bitcoin.

 Huh Huh Huh
Not actually that much but it can cause you bad things if ever dumps will occur during your holding. Bitcoin's volatility has been one of the main reason why it ended up being very popular all over the world. I think we should consider it neutral since it does not choose any sides whether it will rise or fall in no time. It is very much expected that the volatility will affect our profit and we should live with that.

The thought you said comes in my mind when i read the post. Well i guess living in volatility makes investing on bitcoin exciting. It will take guts for someone to invest on a volatile investment and make profit out of it. Which means bitcoin has hugh risk and the higher the risk makes a higher profit. So yes we better live with its volatility.
Volatility is a positive thing for me because with the volatility, we can invest in bitcoin and have profits faster than investing into other investment options and that makes me stick with bitcoin because i cannot make a lot of money without the volatility of bitcoin because i am also trading bitcoin and i find it really profitable because of the volatility.

You have your point ! In my perception bitcoin volatility is not a bad thing because of the prices is flunctuating in the marketplace in which it has a possible that price will rapidly increases.Bitcoin price is unstable in which investor do keep investing in a long term to maintain their money grow. Bitcoin has a lot of opportunities and continue circulating your money .Be strategic in doing things like this. It is usually a big contribution to those investor who invest money in bitcoin I think it is a good thing that volatility has to take huge profit .

Volatality is also part of the identity of bitcoin since it was created decentralized and nobody control the  price of bitcoin the volatality of bitcoin is the effect law of supply and demand since the quantity of bitcoin is limited only to the market cap if there a investors who suddenly dump when there are negative propaganda againts BTC the price suddenly down. But since there are also investors who are craving for a lower price they will take  the opportunity to buy so suddenly the price will go up high again. Thats why it is volatile.7
